Abiogenesis teaches biological life came from non-living bodies. But the non-living is that which is moved by hetero-motive action, whereby motion occurs from outside the substance towards an end outside the substance. For example, a rock is moved down the hill via a push from a stick. The sticks push on the rock is outside the rock and the final end of the motion of the rock is outside the rock.
The living is that which is moved according to automotive action, whereby the act of motion is intrinsic to the moved body and the term of the act is also intrinsic to the body. For example, a man eats and is nourished. The action of eating is from within the man and the act of nourishment is an end within the man.
Abiogenesis teaches biological life came from non-living substances. Yet non-living substances always act in a manner that is contrary to living substances. For biological life to come from non-living substances requires an effect from the non-living that is contrary to the causes of the non-living. Yet as effects are always in accord with causes, the living substances are never caused by the non-living. Therefore the theory of abiogenesis is both impossible false.
